OK, this is a bug in the windows installer - fixed for next release.
Yes, just create it.

Well, you would only notice it if 1) you haven't installed FontTools
before 2) you are using windows 3) you are trying to use on of the
FontTools dependent backends (Agg, GD) and 4) you are kind enough to
report the problem.

After you fix the FontTools.pth problem erase this file and it will be
automagically recreated by ttfquery.
